INDUSTRY German automobile manufacturing company BaSIc coNTRol SYSTem foR loGISTIcS ceNTeRS of a well-kNowN aUTomoBIle maNUfacTURING compaNY The logistics centers of a well-known German automobile manufacturing company control the worldwide distribution of spare parts for all of its models. With the benefit of modern techniques for conveyors plus powerful IT systems, the average commissioning time has been greatly reduced. Now the opportunity exists to introduce a system for visualizing both materials handling processes and building automation across the logistics centers in a stepwise manner in Germany and other European countries. Thus a consistent mode of operation and a HMI can be furnished for the maintenance teams on the various sites so as to afford the same ease of use across all locations. Cegelec AT GmbH & Co. KG Frankfurt/Main has worked on this with the planning department of the central logistics center of this automobile manufacturer. Together they have developed an application using the pcVue SCADA system to serve as the basis for future implementation on the various sites. Materials handling

Groups of operators are configured in the user management feature according to designated security layers. When the user groups are being defined, the user rights (operational rights) assigned to a group are unlocked. When a user account is created, the user may be assigned to one group or several groups. Each user is assigned all the rights needed to perform his tasks. To create mimics for different sites, you can use the graphic symbols...
